Technical Abstract

A system can generate an identity graph that can be arranged temporally for use at least in risk assessment operations and similar analyses. The system can receive a request to visualize entity data. The system can receive the entity data, which can include a set of identity data and a set of interaction data. The system can generate a temporal identity graph using the entity data. The temporal identity graph can temporally link the identity of the entity with the interactions associated with the entity. The system can generate a graphical user interface that may be configured to provide the temporal identity graph in response to the request to visualize the entity data. The graphical user interface can include interactive elements representing the temporal identity graph. Each interactive element can be selected by a user of the graphical user interface to display previously non-displayed information.

4

4.

5

5. The system of claim 4, wherein the operation of generating the temporal identity graph further comprises generating a plurality of connections, wherein each connection of the plurality of connections is configured to visually link a respective node of the first plurality of nodes to a corresponding node of the second plurality of nodes.

6

6. The system of claim 5, wherein the operation of generating the temporal identity graph comprises arranging the first plurality of nodes vertically with respect to a temporally first corresponding node of the second plurality of nodes and horizontally with respect to other nodes of the first plurality of nodes, wherein the other nodes of the first plurality of nodes correspond to the identity of the entity.

7

7. The system of claim 6, wherein each node of the second plurality of nodes is color-coded based on a type of interaction of the node.

8

8. A method comprising: receiving, by a computing device, a request to visualize data relating to an entity and interactions associated with the entity; receiving, by the computing device, entity data that indicates an identity of the entity and a set of interactions associated with the entity; generating, by the computing device, a temporal identity graph using the entity data, the temporal identity graph temporally linking the identity of the entity with the set of interactions associated with the entity; and generating, by the computing device, a graphical user interface configured to provide the temporal identity graph in response to the request to visualize data relating to the entity and the interactions associated with the entity, the graphical user interface comprising a plurality of interactive elements representing the temporal identity graph, each interactive element of the plurality of interactive elements selectable by a user of the graphical user interface to display previously non-displayed information about a corresponding identity data point of the entity or previously non-displayed information about a corresponding interaction associated with the entity, wherein generating the temporal identity graph comprises arranging a plurality of nodes vertically offset from one another on a vertical axis that represents time, wherein each point along the vertical axis represents a different point in time compared to a point in time associated with another point along the vertical axis, and wherein each point along the vertical axis is configured to accept more than one node of the plurality of nodes, the more than one node corresponding to interactions having a common point in time.

9

9. The method of claim 8, wherein receiving the request comprises receiving a request from a particular entity to access an interactive computing environment, and wherein the method further comprises providing a responsive message based on the temporal identity graph, the responsive message usable to control access to the interactive computing environment.

10

10. The method of claim 9, further comprising: performing, by the computing device, an analysis on the temporal identity graph to determine whether the particular entity is the entity associated with the visualized data; and controlling, by the computing device, an interaction involving the particular entity based on the analysis.
